Experience the charming and inviting world of "Damespiel 1," a lively painting that captivates with its cheerful and detailed depiction. In this scene, a girl enthusiastically admires her freshly painted nails and laughs loudly. Behind her sits an adult woman who watches the scene kindly, while a large cat rests comfortably on her lap, also curiously observing the action. The entire setting appears harmonious and peaceful, surrounded by vibrant poppies that add extra color and liveliness to the image.

The artwork is created with tempera, chalk, ink, and graphite on canvas, measuring 100 x 120 cm. The use of these techniques imparts both depth and texture to the painting, while the vibrant composition and meticulous details make the piece a visual delight.
